Chapter 199
Du Ting was lying on the mountain, like a puddle of mud, and was directly beaten to death by Li Ce's punch.

"Exerting strength with intention and bursting out in an instant, this is the real righteousness of the universe! Unexpectedly, this kid actually cultivated the true energy of body protection!" Sha Heng stared at Li Ce first, with a rare look of surprise on his face.

Sha Heng seldom praised others, Zhao Ji heard him praise Li Ce, and the resentment in his heart increased sharply. How could this kid have such a tenacious vitality, and he kept fighting to curb his development, but he still took shape!
Ding Wei's face became extremely ugly, and he looked at Du Yan with cold eyes. Du Yan had promised him before that Du Ting would win this time, so Ding Wei didn't send anyone else, but now it seems that he miscalculated Yes, and it was a big miscalculation!

Du Yan's expression was a bit complicated. On the one hand, he wanted to know Du Ting's injury anxiously, and on the other hand, he had to deal with Ding Wei's censure. In fact, he was also shocked in his heart. He has been practicing hard since he was a child, and he is considered a master among his peers, but he was beaten half to death by this seemingly powerless Li Ce!How does this make him believe.

To be honest, even Li Ce himself didn't believe it, he didn't expect his punch to be so powerful!That kid Du Ting looked quite strong, but he didn't expect that he couldn't stand his own punch.

Zhao Ji asked urgently: "How is General Sha's kung fu so powerful?"

Sha Heng Xianyin said: "Judging from the aura he erupted just now, the second son's internal strength has already ranked among the top experts in the world. I fought against him before, and I wonder why there is such a strong true energy in his body. , now it seems that he has completely absorbed this internal force, but I don't know how he did it?"

Sha Hengxian never imagined that the last time he seriously injured Li Ce, Li Ce got a blessing in disguise, and was rescued by the eminent monk of Daxiangguo Temple. After going against the scriptures and washing his marrow, he absorbed 40 years of pure inner power of heaven and earth!And not only that, after going against the scriptures, his physique is far from being comparable to that of ordinary martial arts practitioners. Even if many people start practicing martial arts at the age of three, they will not be able to develop such a strong physique like him.

Zhao Ji felt cold again, and he finally couldn't help complaining: "General Sha might as well have killed him so hard that he ended up on the spot."

Sha Heng glanced at him with a gloomy face, feeling a little helpless.

Cao Wei glanced at Li Ce with admiration. He was about to step onto the stage to announce the result, but Zhao Zhen waved his hand to stop him and said, "I will go in person."

Zhao Zhen stepped onto the stage, and when the officials and soldiers saw the emperor on the stage, they knelt down and shouted: "Your Majesty, long live long live long live..."

Zhao Zhen smiled slightly and signaled everyone to get up, then he glanced at the audience, and said loudly: "The result of the competition is obvious to all, Li Ce wins! I announce that Li Ce will be the guard this time!"

Li Ce quickly stepped forward and knelt down, "Thank you, Your Majesty, I will not disgrace my life!"

Zhao Zhen smiled at him, and said again: "In addition, I named Li Ce the Ranger General! I heard that you are the best at archery. I have a bow that I paid tribute to in the past, and I will give it to you as well."

After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, an eunuch came to Li Ce holding a long wooden box.

Li Ce saw that there was a longbow in the wooden box, the whole body was dark, it was somewhat similar to the iron arm bow that Guan Yiqi gave him, but the specification was much larger than the iron arm bow, look at this golden light A shiny bowstring is a treasure!He happily took it out, weighed it in his hand and tried it.

Zhao Zhen said: "I have heard that this is a five-stone strong bow. I wonder if you can drive it?"

When Cao Wei heard the five-stone strong bow, his eyes lit up and he couldn't help but said: "Could it be that this is the overlord's bow that Jiangdong paid tribute to during Taizu's time?"

Zhao Zhen frowned slightly and said: "This thing is indeed from Taizu's time, whether it is the Overlord Bow... I don't know."

Cao Wei went up quickly, took the longbow, held it in his hand and looked at it repeatedly. Sha Hengxian, Fan Tingzhao and others in the audience also looked at it one after another. Could it really be the Overlord Bow?

Cao Wei looked at it, and suddenly pulled out a long knife from the waist of a forbidden soldier and cut it towards the bowstring!
"Old man Cao, what are you going to do!" Li Ce yelled anxiously and reached out to snatch it.

"Zhizhi" there was a harsh delivery sound, Cao Wei threw away the long knife, raised the long bow and said haha: "It really is the Overlord Bow of the Overlord of Western Chu. It is rumored that the bowstring of the Overlord Bow is made of black dragon tendons. Swords and guns are invulnerable to fire and water, as expected!"

Sha Hengxian's eyes showed a fiery light, it really is the Overlord Bow!Unexpectedly, such a sacred object has been sealed in the palace for decades!

Li Ce hurriedly snatched the Overlord's Bow, fearing that Old Man Cao would go to test whether it was invulnerable to water and fire. Such a good bow cannot be ruined in his hands.

Cao Wei didn't care about his rudeness just now, and stared: "This is the Overlord Bow, a serious bow with five stones! Can you pull it away?"

Li Ce smiled, pointed to the banners waving in the wind in the distance, and said, "You'll know if you try it?"

"Five-stone strong bow! This little general is going to test shoot the five-stone strong bow!" The soldiers below exploded at once. The five-stone strong bow has only been heard of, and no one has ever actually used it.

"And to shoot at that flagpole, here is at least five hundred steps away from that. Could it be that the young general lost his mind and went crazy?" someone whispered.

"What do you know? A five-stone bow can shoot a thousand steps away! What is a mere five hundred steps!" someone said.

The soldiers were chattering, and even some civil and military ministers couldn't help but start talking. Chen Yaozuo's face was flushed with excitement. This apprentice can always surprise him. Some people knew that Li Ce was his apprentice, and asked him He asked if the kid was bragging.

Soon a soldier offered a long arrow, and everyone stopped discussing for a moment, and all focused their attention on Li Ce.

Li Ce took the long arrow, his internal qi turned sharply, and the strength of his arms soared. He was not in a hurry to bend his bow and shoot the arrow, but picked up the Overlord Bow and looked at it carefully. This thing really belonged to Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Western Chu?

The soldiers below were all waiting to see him shoot arrows, but this guy was holding up his bow, turning it over and over, looking at it non-stop, but there was no movement of opening the bow!

Zhao Ji laughed loudly on purpose: "Pretending to be!"

Zhao Qin'er watched from the sidelines, and couldn't help worrying secretly, this cowhide must have been bragging again, and now he can't get off the stage.

"Haha... What a bow!" After watching for a long time, this guy came out with this sentence.

Suddenly he swung his long bow, held the bow in his left hand, pinched the bowstring with his right hand and flicked it a few times. Everyone was watching his right hand holding their breath, expecting to see him draw the bowstring.

After he couldn't flick it twice, Li Ce's face tightened, and he put away his joking look. He took a deep breath, put the long arrow on his right hand, and pinched the arrow tail with three fingers. Slowly pull it away!
He was holding the Overlord Bow, his hand was motionless, and he was aiming at the flagpole in the distance, his whole body didn't shake at all, just like a sculpture.

One of Sha Heng's subordinates praised softly: "Yuan Ting and Yue Zhi, the water waves are not startled, this is the highest state of archery!"

Sha Heng looked back at the man first and said, "Old Ba, how is it compared to you?"

The person called Lao Ba is Lei Tianqi, one of Sha Hengxian's generals, and his other hidden identity is one of the top ten protectors of the Manichaeism, ranking eighth, so Sha Heng first called him Lao Ba.

Lei Tianqi's best weapon is also a bow and arrow, and people in Jianghehu call it "Thor's Arrow"!He stared at Li Ce closely, and said in a low voice: "This kid draws the five-stone strong bow without any effort. With only this strength, I feel inferior. Looking at his posture and method of raising the bow, it is also a matter of experience. Famed teacher advises me, I'm afraid... I can't compare to him."

Sha Hengxian still had that expressionless and cold look on his face. After hearing Lei Tianqi's words, he frowned, and said again: "Then do you think he can shoot?"

Lei Tianqi took a deep breath and spit out a word after a while: "Yes!"

Sha Heng first glanced at him with deep meaning, his cheeks trembled twice, showing a look of ferocity.

Li Ce stared at the flagpole 40 steps away, and felt that the flagpole was right in front of him. He could even see the grain of the wood on the flagpole clearly. He didn't expect that after absorbing the internal force of those [-] years, his strength would increase greatly, and even his eyesight would be impaired. He has improved a lot, and he is sure to hit it!

"Whoosh!" There was a sharp sound of tearing the air, and Li Ce finally let go of the bowstring.

Everyone saw a flash of white light, and the flagpole in the distance suddenly snapped from the middle!The big orange flag fluttered down...

"Okay!" The soldiers clapped their hands and cheered.

"Haha, good! Sure enough, I have lived up to my high expectations, and I have not insulted the name of the Overlord Bow!" Zhao Zhenchao laughed and said to the officials, Li Ce was his hand-picked person, and Li Ce's wonderful performance can be considered indirectly Win face for him.

Ding Wei's face was extremely ugly, he was always good at hiding his emotions, but this time he broke out, he pointed at Du and his son and cursed: "Waste, a father's mud can't support the wall, and a son is even more useless !"

Du's father and son blushed and bowed their heads in silence.

Li Ce leaned on the ground with his long bow, held the horn of the bow with his left hand, and gently turned his wrist with his right hand. He looked at Zhao Ji and others in the audience provocatively. He deliberately raised his chin slightly, showing a disdainful smile.

Zhao Ji saw that he was provoking him so much, he was about to get up as soon as he slapped the table, but Zhang Yuan held his shoulders next to him, and said in a low voice: "He is deliberately provoking you, don't be fooled.

Zhao Ji's face was a little displeased, and he asked in a low voice, "Taken?"

Zhang Yuan sneered: "He aims to establish his prestige today, don't give him any chance."

"What kind of prestige is there? How can I be afraid of a nobody like him?" Zhao Ji said angrily. In fact, he also vaguely felt that Li Ce had some conspiracy, but Zhang Yuan said it directly, which still made him lose face.

Zhang Yuandao: "Li Ce is a smart man, how many times the prince has killed him, how could he not know? He has already known your intentions by provoking him so proactively, the prince might as well wait and see what happens."

Zhao Ziyu glanced at Zhang Yuan coquettishly, this scholar's mind is really good, it seems that he didn't spend much effort to win over this person.

Standing on the stage, Li Ce suddenly said loudly: "I have heard for a long time that the Golden Spear Battalion of the Guard Infantry Division is said to be invincible in the entire army. I really want to learn how powerful the Golden Spear Battalion is, so I can know my own gap, and I wonder if Commander Sha Dian dares to fight?" After he finished speaking, he stared at Sha Heng with a cold smile and waited for his answer.

"Boom!" The soldiers below blew up the pot all of a sudden.

"Challenge the Golden Gun Battalion, this little general is crazy enough!" Someone laughed.

"A newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and its courage is commendable, but after all, it is young and does not know how to speak!" Some ministers criticized.

"Xi Yuan, your apprentice is much more courageous than you." The minister who had a good relationship with Chen Yaozuo teased.

"What I lack in Song Dynasty is this kind of young general. This kid has the guts. Even if he loses today, he won't be ashamed!" Cao Wei said to the veteran general beside him, stroking his beard.

All the veterans nodded approvingly and looked at the vigorous Li Ce on the stage.

"Old General Cao, the Golden Spear Battalion is the unit of your favorite student Yuchi Junmai, why are you still facing outsiders?" Fan Tingzhao, the commander in chief of the palace, spoke.

Li Ce is Fan Tingzhao's subordinate. Just now when Li Ce challenged the Golden Spear Battalion, Fan Tingzhao was shocked at first, then overjoyed in his heart, but he still wanted to ask Cao Wei's attitude, after all, Cao Wei was also half of his teacher.

Cao Wei proudly said: "This forbidden army is the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty, not my army alone. There is such a handsome young man in the army, so the old man is naturally very happy."

Fan Tingzhao let go of his heart and said in admiration: "The old general is open-minded, Ting Zhao admires him."

Cao Wei didn't know what Fan Tingzhao was thinking. He glanced at Fan Tingzhao and said, "There's no need to do this. I'm the presiding judge today. Are you worried that I'll protect my shortcomings? Fan Tingzhao, you kid really underestimated this old man!"
